Hi Griz803,
Thank you for your reply,
To answer your questions, I am using win 98 OS and dropping down in to dos to run the rahide editor and DJgpp "C" compiler. Are you familiar with this public domain software? The version I am working with will only compile 32 bit machine programs. Do you know if a 16 bit version was ever released and where to find a copy of it and the tutor? If it existed, could you control the serial ports and send binary words over it?
I looked at (like a year or so ago) the Borland website and don't remember seeing any free 16 bit C programing software. Do you know for sure that it exists? If so can you provide me with a link. Do you think I can still find a tutor text ect. to work from? It sounds like you may have had experience with it in the past?
I have stopped my training on C until I can confirm that I have a programming language that will allow me to transmit binary words through the serial ports.
Since I have been unable to verify that the software I am using will allow me to do that, and acquire some sort of tutor to teach me the functions necessary, I am at an impass.
Thank you Again
Light
